Gilligan's Island...keep in mind the professor could make a bamboo lie detector but couldn't build a ****ing raft.
Can't sell Canadian oil to the American market for any more
than it's sold to the Canadian market. That's burried in the
NAFTA Argeement, I believe.
Sunlight is unreliable and you have to live near a source of solar electricty, it stil takes oil to make solar electric panels and solar heat collectors, still takes oil to transport and maintain them, still takes huge amounts of oil to make and maintain the transmission equipment and most import it's takes oil to feed the planet.
The world will need oil for many years to come, that's for sure. As for tailing ponds, eventually they won't be required at all. New technology has made them a lot smaller in recent years and the goal is to not have them at all.
I don't care what you call it the Canadian Oil Industry does have the capacity to refine this oil material. I too wonder why the need for a Pipeline? My only conclusion is those who are the majority investors have the financial ability to call the shots and do whatever it is (like build this Pipeline) and never even look back. I see it as a greed motivated project and the consideration to employ Canadian labor is not even a consideration. That is a move that I think will later come back to haunt those who are making the decisions.
